LPIC-1 Exam 101 v5 (Linux Administrator) — Question 91

Which file defines the network locations from where the Debian package manager downloads software packages?

Answer options

• A. /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg
• B. /etc/apt/apt.conf.d
• C. /etc/apt/apt.conf
• D. /etc/dpkg/dselect.cfg
• E. /etc/apt/sources.list

Correct answer: E

Explanation

The correct answer is E, as the /etc/apt/sources.list file contains the list of repositories and network locations for downloading packages. The other options refer to configuration files that do not define download sources, such as dpkg configurations or additional APT configurations, which do not serve the same purpose.
